PartyBOT is an AI that uses facial recognition and other tech to get your toes tapping

Ever go to a party where they play music you hate, and everyone dances except for you? That shouldn't happen at a party with PartyBOT. Ever wish Amazon's Alexa or Apple's Siri would let their hair down, stop being such know-it-all busybodies, and head out for a night on the town While it's likely better to have some regular human friends to fill this role, you may still be interested to hear about PartyBOT. Created by Accenture Interactive, PartyBOT loves to party. You know that because it totally says so in his name. PartyBOT debuted at this year's SXSW party: showing off his AI, facial recognition, and natural language processing technology to figure out the emotions of partygoers, and in the process working out which ones needed to be lured to the dance floor, and then feeding that information to the DJ.
